I had a good day playing train-based board games, but now it's snoooze time

health, insomnia 

I thought I had gotten rid of this particular insomnia 5 years ago

New Years Resolution 

I wrote about my plans for this year here:

averylychee.neocities.org/log/

As I mention: I've already been working towards getting myself to a place where I can do this, so I'm fairly confident that this will go ok.

The main thing I need to remember is to be flexible, and to not be hard on myself.

conlang | now named (new link) 

The language has been named and moved to a new page:

averylychee.neocities.org/lang

I don't yet know what tɬɯ́qʈɤ means (if it even means anything at all), but that's what it's called!

@fluffdragom Addi told me big faer can still fit in a room. Maybe not this one, but faer lovers (who I couldn't draw as more than vague humanoids given the normal restrictions) don't mind the situation. That palm in the corner probably does though. So much love to give~ :3

(I meant for it to be more focused on belly rubs, but oh well. Also durgy might be a bit too big...)

[Also since these are specifically for you, Addi, I made this one in the hope it arouses kin feels. <3]

conlang | naming 

part of why my current language doesn't have a name is because it's very difficult to come up with a name that works in both the language itself and in English, since the sounds they have in common are:

/p/, /m/, /i/, /a/

And while I could name it something like "pami", I feel like this language would have a much longer name.

conlang | "how do I make my own conlang?" 

even though my current conlang is called "unnamed language 3", it's actually my 6th conlang in the past 5 years. If you start making your own and need some help, I'm very happy to help you out with anything!

conlang | "how do I make my own conlang?" 

Since I was asked "how do you even manage to start a conlang?", here's my answer:

It's kind of like worldbuilding, in that you can either do a vague overview and just give the impression of a language, or you can delve into the depths and build a complex beast.

The way I started was with this guide: zompist.com/kit.html

(the first paragraph-ish is just an add for future books, the actual guide starts with the italics text)

conlang | request for resources/help 

hmm... I'm concerned that my tense/aspect/mode system is unconciously tending towards the way Germanic languages work.

Does anyone have any good references for Tense and Aspect systems that aren't like English? Either from the perspective of creating a conlang, or from grammars of real languages.

money 

in 2019, I'm going to try out using hledger to manage my finances, instead of my own treesheets system.

My treesheets system is good for glancing at, but it requires a lot of manual calculations.
